Zephyr knew Selene was happy the moment he entered her presence. Though startled by his arrival and a fleeting glare, her sapphire eyes held a softness he hadn't seen before. The source of her delight became clear when he told her it was time for the initiation.
She walked away from him to a corner of the room, turning her back to him to offer a quick prayer to the goddess.
She had been thinking of when she woukd step out again and now she had the chance. She did not feel scared anymore. Instead, Shs felt anxious to do it. And if she was successful then she would do it the next day again.
And the day after that. And the days after that.
She would come out everyday.
She took a deep breath before making sure that her veil was firmly in place.
Zephye watched her with the utmost uncontrollable curiosity and when she turned, he had to start walking away so she would not catch him starring.
Still, he did not stop observing her closely.
